Watch this space for other opportunities to see some of the rich local arts that bloom around Robeson County. We love Lumberton and the warm reception we have here, the only thing better is to share what comes into the Guild - often from the local communities around the County in which the artists themselves live. Let us know if you have some suggestions for venues in your local communities that may be interested in hosting a short visit. Thanks in advance!
